【Chris Cassidy Archives】

FAFSA has everyone scouring their social media accounts.

If you've attended college,Chris Cassidy Archives you've probably had to fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or a FAFSA, which is basically a set of documents asking the government for funds to help out with tuition. Because you need to "prove" your need for financial aid, "I'm telling FAFSA" became a meme to respond to people flexing on Instagram and Twitter.

When high schooler @worldwideliz_ tweeted an insanely well-produced prom video, showing off her crew's luxury car and elaborate dresses, another Twitter user joked that FAFSA was watching.

Twitter user @_Ferrrg replied to the original clout video with the iconic GIF of rapper Birdman rubbing his hands in concern.

"FAFSA looking at this like," they wrote, not even tagging the Federal Student Aid account.

And by the way, you can stop looking over your shoulder when you're indulgent on Twitter. According to BuzzFeed, the Department of Education assured stressed college hopefuls that they "do not "monitor people's [online] activities."

"We don't monitor people's activity, instead we look for opportunities to engage with our customers to inform them about federal student aid and answer their questions ... using words and GIFs," the Department of Education said in a statement to BuzzFeed News.

Apparently, social media users tend to send students' extravagant prom posts to FASFA around this time every year. Although the account usually doesn't respond, they took this opportunity to "embrace the channel's humor."

Keep up the prom flexes — but just know that FAFSA might respond.
